I am not trying to debate this, I just wanted to know how would adjustments be made.

Specific words were used and yes the word linoleum was in the wording with the sq ft to be removed. 

One incident turns into several if this is the work ethic. I understand many would say just forget about it, well when does forgetting about too many things paid for that are not done become the norm. I’m just saying It could happen if allowed to continue and not be corrected.

Aren’t Mechanics lien generally when the contract is vague and neither side believe the other is right/wrong, I guess there are any number of reasons one is placed on property.

I understand but the point is still being paid to perform a task that was not fulfilled. 

In the beginning without knowing much about this flooring, I tried to educate myself and with finding varied methods, I went with this as an assurance things would be done to what I looked to be the right way for me.

 Hi Mark-

I am not looking for ways to deduct money, I’m trying to do the right thing and if I am paying someone for labor then they too should fulfill the contract. 

We have a contract for work to be completed and if they start cutting corners then it’s likely they will do it with someone else.

If this were someone I always delt with and knew their work ethic, quality, etc then I would trust their experience. But this is a new person and we both agreed on what was to be done.

And hiring them again, probably not for other reasons not applicable to this topic.

Btw, that’s a first I heard waterproof plank is almost “always” installed over top? I did a lot of research and have not run across that particular scenario. I got several other varying degrees like use 6-mil vapor barrier over concrete with a pad, or don’t use it and just put the pad down with the plank or don’t use padding and just put down the plank. And the  non-sales pitch that people expressly put 6-mil down to not void their warranty, etc.

I posted this using the app and all the words ran together after I looked on a real computer :-/

A potion of the agreed upon contract was not fulfilled. I expect there may be more before the work is finished.

Contract states all flooring will be removed (ie carpet, padding, staples, tacks, linoleum) that is listed under one category and price.

All the linoleum was not removed and the vinyl plank was installed on top with the padding.

I caught them early on before the first room of linoleum was about to be laid over with new flooring and told them to remove it. I was not there when the hallway and foyer was done and saw they did not remove it because the quarter round was not put down yet and allowed me to see (after pulling up one plank) they laid over top.

How do I adjust for payment to deduct what was not completed? It’s all one price for demolished.

Thank you

The property is in Halethorpe (Arbutus, Baltimore County). 

Is this a service area for them?

I also need a plumber and need to have windows replaced. Any recommendations?

Thanks

Do you really need or want a GC or a great handyman? 

@Scott Mac thanks I am desperate to get this done.

Looking for a company to replace a broken window in my rental. This is in Halethorpe MD.

Can anyone recommend someone that would also get the window?

Thanks
